Connecting the cable for the IT 6300
1. To secure the interface cable to the scanner, proceed as follows: plug the RJ 41 connector into the
socket on the bottom of the hand-held scanner, now use a Phillips screwdriver to secure the supplied
clip for locking the cable.
2. Connect the interface cable to the appropriate connection socket on the computer.
3. You will need a power supply unit for the voltage supply. Connect this power supply unit to the interface
cable.
4. Connect the power supply unit to the power socket.
5. Check the operational readiness of the scanner by pointing the scanning surface towards a flat surface
and pulling the trigger. A green target line as well as the red illumination should now be visible. Now
scan a sample label. The scanner emits an audible signal to confirm that the label has been read; if
necessary, the data are now passed on to the computer.
Testing the scanner
The adjacent bar code is for testing the scanner,
the module size is 0.5 mm (20 mil)

Resetting the IT 6300 to factory settings
To reset all parameters to factory settings, scan the bar code shown below.
Attention: All settings are lost!!!
Configuration
The hand-held scanner can always be configured using bar codes. To do this, first select the bar code in
the manual and then actuate the trigger button in order to read the code. The configuration is then
immediately accepted and executed.
Several of the most important configurations are listed in the following.
A second option is to configure the hand-held scanner with the USB and RS232 interfaces with the aid of
the "6300 Series Setup Tool" PC program. You can download and install this program from our homepage
at www.leuze.de. The program can be used to make settings and transfer them to the hand-held scanner.
The configuration can also be stored so that it can be reused at a later time.
The standard applications are described in the following; each is summarised on a separate page.

The operation of the IT 6300 in keyboard-emulation mode on a USB port is described in this chapter. A PC
keyboard is emulated in this operating mode. The data which are read in are written directly to the currently
activated program. Thus, the data can be processed further in all standard programs.

2. The scanner acknowledges this connection with a beep.
3. Scan the code shown below.
Configuration
USB keyboard emulation with CR LF

Leuze electronic
Short instructions IT 6300 Leuze electronic Page 14
IT 6300 to USB interface (COM port emulation)
The operation of the IT 6300 as a serial interface on a USB port is described in this chapter. A COM
interface is emulated in this operating mode. The data which are read in are sent to a new COM interface.
The driver with which you emulate this COM interface can be found on the CD-ROM or can be downloaded
from our homepage at www.leuze.de. Thus, the data can be processed further in programs which expect
data via COM interfaces.
Required parts:
1x 501 05 380 IT 6300 IDP 351S
1x 501 05 426 USB cable for IT 6300
1x 501 03 403 Power supply unit
Please connect the IT 6300 acc. to the figures shown below.
To do this, proceed as follows:
1. Plug the IT 6300 hand-held scanner into a free USB port.
2. The scanner acknowledges this connection
with a beep.
3. Scan the code shown below.
4. Install the USB serial driver when you are
prompted to do so by Windows.
5. Open a terminal program or your program for the serial interface, select the new COM port, and make
the following settings: baud rate 38400, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity. A CR is still transmitted as
terminator.
Configuration
COM port emulation on the next free COM address with 38400 baud,
8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and a CR as postfix.

Leuze electronic
Short instructions IT 6300 Leuze electronic Page 15
Trigger
To activate the read process, a trigger signal is to be sent via the serial RS 232 interface or USB interface
(COM port emulation only). The command is to be sent at the set baud rate, parity, and data and stop bits.
The command for activation is: +ASCII decimal value: 043
To cancel read readiness, send a deactivation.
The command for deactivation is: - ASCII decimal value: 045
Following a successful read operation, the IT 6300 deactivates itself.
The second option is to use the trigger button to establish read readiness.
Troubleshooting
For problem detection and troubleshooting, examine your scanner as follows:
1. Is the scanner supplied with power via the interface cable? For power to be supplied, the scanner and
computer must be connected to one another before the scanner is commissioned, whereby the
computer must provide a power supply of 5 volt DC for the scanner. Check the manual for your
computer to ensure that the power supply is adequate for connecting your scanner.
2. Make certain that the interface cable is securely connected to the computer. You can find information
on properly connecting the scanner in the manual for your computer. Support is also available from
your technical staff.
3. If your system operates with an external voltage supply, make certain that the power supply unit is
securely connected to the scanner and power supply.
4. Check that the interface cable is securely connected to the handle of the scanner. To do this, loosen
the Phillips screw on the end cap of the handle with a suitable screwdriver. Remove the cable fastening
clip and pull out the cable. Now guide the cable back in and make certain that it is properly seated in
the bracket. Remount the fastening clip and secure everything with the Phillips screw.
With the IT 4600, please loosen the cable with a small pin: the plug is unlocked by inserting the pin into
the hole in the side of the end cap.
5. If, even after performing all of these measures, the scanner is not ready for operation, replace the
power supply unit with a different recommended power supply unit which you are certain functions
properly.
6. Make certain that your scanner's interface is compatible with the computer. Further information on this
topic can be found in the manual for your computer. Also check whether the scanner has been
configured for the desired application. This information is described in the online help system for the
setup tool.
7. Check whether the bar code labels which you would like to scan are of suitable quality and that the
used bar code symbol is recognised by your scanner. Sample labels for testing are available from your
dealer should you require precise information on the label details. Damaged bar code labels (crinkled,
torn or soiled) may be recognised poorly or not at all by the scanner. If you suspect that the problem
lies with the quality of the label, check the read readiness with a label of relatively good quality.
8. If the problems are still not corrected, please contact Leuze electronic.
